Make and melt piece #3

I hope everyone is safe and well. I made quite a few pieces for fun and practise this week. Thought I would share a pendant on this Friday as a change from a ring.

I like old world designs, as you can probably tell. Not being able to go outside this week for my usual walks I thought I would make something earthy/floral in design. To give it an even more aged look and to practise with some chemicals I have, I tarnished the metal.

The gemstone is a Rhodolite Garnet. They vary in colour from red, pink, purple and any mix in between. The pendant is a little over 3cm in length from top to bottom.

Take care everyone and I will be back next week to share with you another piece I am making as I pass the time experimenting with things and making pieces I want to but never get the chance.

Please also feel free to email or call me with any enquiries for now or down the road.
